Helping clients enhance their lives through organization, elimination of excess, and personal and professional goal achievement.
We’re 7 weeks into the stay-at-home order in my state. In my last blog I talked about being ok with not getting stuff done during this difficult time.
Now, for a lot of people the fog seems to finally be lifting. Maybe it’s the sporadic, sunny spring weather here in New England that’s helping us feel ready to move forward in this new reality.
Here in the United States, most of us have been ordered to stay at home for the past 6ish weeks. While everyone is experiencing the COVID-19 pandemic crisis in their own way, I’ve noticed there are a lot of similarities in the ways many of us are feeling.
My conversations with a lot of colleagues, friends, and clients have shown that many of us spent the first few weeks in a sort of denial and fog. I think we had a hope that this was all very temporary and that things would get back to “normal” soon enough.
Feeling that nothing can be done until perfect is achieved or a perfect outcome can be assured is an awfully heavy burden the perfectionist takes on. It can be completely paralyzing and incredibly stressful.
